I think you are right about mojo. It reminds me a bit of "panache" but
not exactly....

I've always liked the word "Mojo", too
I never looked it up before (thanks, Dave, I read that), but I know the Muddy Waters song, and I've always felt it meant powerful charm and magnetism, charisma, not just sexual, but in life.
I never thought about the voodoo aspect of it, that's cool.

I like the word mojo
It seems to have its own mojo in that you can adapt it to all sorts of environments. I'd define it as spirit, joie de vivre, get-up-and-go.

Tigerprincess, Or another way of putting it is "I'm married, not dead".
Mr. Mojo expert might be a little miffed that you're not flirting with HIM, but you're too smart to go down that road.
